This question has come to mind since I keep seeing the comment that Matt Cameron is a bad drummer, and that is:

Has Matt ever created a memorable drum beat or drum part? I can't think of any of the top of my head unlike for Dave Kruzen (Why Go), Dave Abbruzzese (take your pick), Jack Irons (Who You Are, Sky I Scrape).

Anything in between
Hitchhikers

Sweet Lew
Thunderclap

Sleight of Hand

And whats Dave A memorable drum part besides the looped one on WMA?

I love Matt's perfomance in Binaural. I dont think its often praised as it should, its way up there with PJ finest moments. He is so fucking tight and heavy, its just amazing.

Dave A's memorable drum part was throwing his sticks at the end of Rearviewmirror because Eddie and Brendan O'Brien were pushing him too hard

Have you heard his demo of The Fixer? Before it got all Ed'd and BOB'd? It's much better

he didn't write "The Fixer"; he wrote the musical template from which Ed and Bo'B created the Fixen-stein monster

musically The Fixer has a lot of plus points, which I'm ascribing to Matt; lyrically and melodically it's almost unforgivably cheesy

I still kind of like it, depending on my mood, but sometimes those lyrics are just too cloying

Matt wrote some of the riffs used in "The Fixer" and that's about it.

I don't think he had anything to do with that crappy middle-8 bit.

The Fixer is a perfect song as-is. Have you people no joy in your lives?

if I listed all the things that provide me joy in my life, "The Fixer" would be fairly low on it

Unemployable, Cropduster and In The Moonlight are my favorites MC tunes.

The little details he does in the ride cymbal in Unemployable are not revolutionary, but feels like a nice touch since first listening.

Far from my favorite PJ tune, but, such a solid drum performance, and, yeah, that ride pattern is $$
